Training Methodology
General Character of the Course: Input and Reflection
It is an input-driven syllabus; there is ample ongoing opportunity for reflection and exchange of ideas between participants. The objective throughout the course is that participants should feel:
- That they are being encouraged, but not pressured, into participating as fully as they wish at almost any stage of the programme
- That they can learn from the wide range of experience and cultural background in the group
- That the programme, though already mapped out in detail, is to a certain extent flexible to their interests and needs insofar as these can be negotiated within the group
- That they are getting value for money in terms of input including a substantial take-home file and CD of materials they can use in their own classes
